Cast-iron dutch oven with beautiful orange glaze. Great for stock, stews, braises – slow cooking and hearty meals! In addition to cast iron’s superior heat retention and even heat distribution properties, Essenso’s 3-layer enameled cast iron dutch oven doesn’t require seasoning, its impermeable surface can be used with acidic foods and wine, and it’s resistant to cracking and rusting. Easily tolerates up to 500F in the oven. Smooth surface is more user friendly with glass stoves than traditional cast iron cookware. Good food release properties when lightly lined with cooking oil and used on medium-low heat. Promotes easier to clean, healthier, residue-free cast-iron cooking. If preheated on low-medium heat, cast iron doesn’t require higher heats that lead to food sticking and burning. A beautiful piece to present on the table straight out of the oven or off the stove. Cast iron heat retaining properties will keep food hot on the table. Great for cooking lamb ragu, braised short ribs, chicken stock, bread and other great one-pot, hearty meals! Made in Turkey.
